But I think they're asking too much. Then again if you stripped it out...

I don't think it's sitting on its pads correctly.

You might be right, Randy.

Chris, this is likely to be a case where the parts' value far exceeds the boat's. Maybe our friend in Columbus could give a few pointers about parting it out.

Depends, if that is a Hughes Northstar 500, they were built incrediblty tough. Might make an interesting project boat. Looks like it is on a cradle, maybe the cradle collapsed.

It looks like a marina clearing out old boats. If you look at "view seller's other ads" its all old boats sitting forlorn. Lotsa wood hulls.

A guy in our marina has one of those hughes.He is a summertime liveaboard. A single guy who is a college prof. Maybe i could sell parts to him. Actually if it comes with sails and an OB its prolly a good value.

Perhaps....

I think it depends on how common/popular the boat is in the first place. You need to have a market.
